Red Hat AI Inference Server Validated models

Red Hat AI Documentation Team

Abstract

Learn about the validated models that you can run with Red Hat AI Inference Server.

Preface
Copy link

Red Hat provides validated third-party models that you can serve with AI Inference Server. These models are designed for efficient deployment on the Red Hat AI platform. Models are validated using open source tools. Red Hat uses GuideLLM for performance benchmarking and Language Model Evaluation Harness for accuracy evaluations.

Note

You can explore the validated models, complete with model details and deployment instructions, in the Red Hat AI validated models - v1.0 collection on Hugging Face.

The following table lists the Red Hat AI validated models for use with Red Hat AI Inference Server 3.0.

  • If you are using AI Inference Server as standalone product, use the Hugging Face images.
  • If you are using AI Inference Server as part of a RHEL AI deployment, use the model OCI artifact image.
  • If you are using AI Inference Server as part of a OpenShift AI deployment, use the model ModelCar image.
Important

AMD GPUs support FP8 (W8A8) and GGUF quantization variant models only. For more information, see Supported hardware.
